How and when did you first hear about Bitcoin?

My very first time hearing about Bitcoin was late 2016 when Btc was around 700$ a coin. I was watching a Youtube video about some guy purchasing stuff on the dark web, like Iphones and hacked streaming accounts. The guy was spending some Bitcoins to test if you could really buy these things on the dark web and if these things really got delivered to your house. If i remember correctly, he got scammed and he never received the Iphone that he bought for around 1 BTC. Looking in hindsight, this was a very expensive Iphone that he never received.

So I came here to hear about your stories about how and when you first discovered Bitcoin and if you unlike me decided to invest some money in the coin that we now all love. So share your story for us.
